On Friday (July 25), Mariah Carey released “Sugar Sweet,” the second single from her eagerly anticipated 16th album, Here for It All. The dancehall-infused track features guest vocals from Shenseea and Kehlani over a sultry synth melody and propulsive drums, with Carey delivering a catchy hook about love and sweetness. This new track follows the project’s lead single, “Type Dangerous,” which dropped in June and was accompanied by a remix EP featuring Busta Rhymes, Method Man, and Redman. Carey officially announced the release date for Here for It All last week, with the long-awaited new album set to arrive on September 26, marking her first studio release since 2018’s Caution. Kelani took to Instagram to praise Carey after the track was released, writing: “This woman is the definition of an icon. To have given us so much, for DECADES & never fail to impress us through all the twists and turns music makes. I am so honored and immensely grateful.” (Rolling Stone)
